The Target Pad™

The Target Pad™ is an outstanding apparatus for deliberate practice. With movable targets of differing sizes this device provides the pitcher an opportunity to throw with specific purpose.

The unique design of the Target Pad™ provides excellent training opportunities regardless of age or ability. Perfecting a new pitch… studying the intricacies of effective velocity… the Target Pad™ is the ideal instrument. With the Target Pad™ the pitcher can practice without a catcher eliminating many scheduling and time constraints.

The innovative construction of the Target Pad™, along with its practicality, led to the implement receiving the Best of Show Award at the American Baseball Coaches Association Convention as a top new baseball invention. This is what Ron Wolforth, designer of the Target Pad™, has to say about the tool:

“Our 8 year olds LOVE being able to move down in target size as they master their command. Our professional pitchers refer to the Pitcher’s Target Pad™ as ‘A video game for pitchers’. I’ve been doing this for 20 years and this is the very best tool I’ve ever encountered for pitchers – EVER!”

The Target Pad™ and accompanying 10 Targets (5 red and 5 white) are made of durable vinyl with the Targets ranging 4 to 20 inches in size. The Targets attach to the Target Pad™ with Velcro and can be moved to any location on the 6’ x 4’ Target Pad™. The Target Pad™ can be attached to most nets or field screens. Each Target Pad includes an instructional video from Ron Wolforth.
